Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding with Strawberries, Raspberries and Kiwi

Marinated Large Flat Portobello Mushrooms

29/06/2015

Large, flat mushrooms have a substantial, earthy bite to them. They are extra juicy when cooked in this simple marinade. Perfect on their own but you can also sandwich them in between a burger bun with some salad leaves and a little mayonnaise.

Lay the mushrooms face up in a baking tray and spoon over the marinade, making sure the mushrooms are well covered, and leave for at least 2 hours in the fridge to allow the flavours to infuse.

Preheat the BBQ or the grill to medium/high.

Lift the mushrooms out of the marinade and place, gills side down, on the BBQ or under the grill.

Cook for 5 minutes until they begin to colour and soften. Then carefully turn the mushrooms over and cook skin side down for a further 5 minutes so that they are cooked on both sides. I like to spoon some of the marinade into the mushrooms as they are now gills side up.

Once cooked on both sides, remove from the heat.

Drizzle the remaining marinade over the mushrooms and serve with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice on the top.
